Testimonals

Amanda & David, 2019

Fionnuala and the entire team were outstanding start to finish! They made the whole experience as stress free as possible and helped us have the best day of our lives. So glad we chose Carton House!

Eoin & Edel, 2018

"From the moment we chose Carton House to the time we left after 2 wonderful days in November, we cannot thank everyone enough. The venue was idyllic, the atmosphere was perfect, and the food was sensational. For what is always a memorable occasion in a couple’s life, ours was no exception. We had total faith in Fionnuala and the team and never had a moment of worry. We could not imagine having had a more special day"

Lauren & Patrick, 2018

"We can not recommend Carton House and its wonderful team highly enough. We are a couple based overseas and selected the venue without even viewing it. The team were always available, happy to accommodate calls when suited us and were wonderful in helping us plan and provide advice. Everything on the day ran like a dream. There were no issues and everything was organised just how we had discussed with the coordinator. Most professional, efficient, warm, friendly and accommodating venue I have ever had the pleasure to work with."

Ward and Manly, 2018

"We can only say how grateful we are for everything that Fionnuala did for us on our special day.

All of our guests have been raving about her and the staff, from the food, to the setting, to the service…it was all incredible!"

Kate and Andrew, 2018

"I cannot thank you all enough for what was the most magical day for both myself and Andy. Fionnuala was one of the main reasons we picked Carton House, from the very beginning she made everything so easy and effortless. She was so flexible with us and helped us create the day that was personal to us - nothing was ever a problem.

From the moment I arrived on the scene I felt like I was treated like a queen. Everything flowed like clockwork and we floated through the whole day.

All of the guests have commented on how good everything was. Please pass on our compliments to the chef. Everything was just as delicious as it was on our tasting afternoon. All guests have commented on how good the food was, in particular the duck!!! So nice to hear this from our guests! An element we really wanted right. The staff on the night were just wonderful too. Our suite was just fab, oh my god!! I can't wait to go back!!"

Maree and Donal, 2018

"It was magnificent! Carton House and staff exceeded all our expectations. No fault on the day, everything was perfect. We had so many of our guests saying to us that both the staff and food was amazing and one of the best weddings they had been to. You helped us so so much with all our questions and emails and you were one of the reasons we booked Carton House for our wedding, we saw how interested and helpful you were and we knew we needed that for our wedding.

To Emma and Pauline thank you so much for all the help with sorting the accommodation. There were plenty of emails but each was responded efficiently and so helpful. It really meant a lot to us.

To David the manager on the day of the wedding. He was amazing. So so helpful and every tiny detail was perfectly organised. Not one thing was out of place. Any of our questions were answered immediately and we both have very high regard for him as he went above and beyond for us. To all the staff who worked on the wedding day. Many of our guests commented how professional, helpful and precise they were. Definitely a credit to Carton House. Thank you to you all for making it the best day of our lives."

Synne and Marius, 2015

"Dear Fionnuala,We must thank you also for everything you helped us with and did for us for our wedding. We really felt that you 'got us', and that we could completely trust in you. Our day in Carton House was like a dream. And our Norwegian guests were completely overwhelmed and thought the old part was nothing they had seen before. I must say the service was brill, also in the spa:) Thank you also for the lovely gift from the spa that was in my room, and also the champagne and everything. And for helping with our dresses before the ceremony:) My mum absolutely loved Carton House and thought the service was just fantastic.

We were really happy with the rugby zone, worked out absolutely perfect! The steak sandwiches were really nice!"
